The difficulty of evaluating contamination from edge and bevel of a wafer is well known even as the importance of contamination from these areas has increased. In this study, we will highlight the tools and the methods that we have employed in addressing this problem.

The characterization of many of the different critical modules within the 3D stacking integration flows is becoming more and more crucial. Microbump dimensions are being scaled down to the pitch of 20µm and below. This scaling is required in order to achieve higher interconnect densities. For yielding vertical interconnects in die-to-die and die-to-wafer stacking, highly accurate and repeatable measurements and inspections of microbumps are an absolute must for this technology to become a viable industrial option. Microbump process control is usually a hybrid approach of inspecting the full wafer including all microbumps and specific microbump metrology. This eventually enables correct die classification and selection of known good die for further integration in 3D packages. Prior to being able to classify and disposition die based on microbump integrity, yield critical defect types need to be identified, defect mechanisms need to be understood and dimensional features impacting further processing need to be characterized. This paper addresses these requirements and elaborates on the applied defect learning methodology based on a significant amount of microbump process monitor wafers. Yield loss by every defect type was quantified and root causes for these yield critical defect types were discovered. From this analysis, further process improvement projects can be initiated, parameters for statistical process control derived and known good die for yielding die-to-die and die-to-wafer stacking can be identified and separated from failing die.","PeriodicalId":349004,"journal":{"name":"2018 29th Annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129859922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a modified Non-threaded Run-to-Run approach is proposed. This approach permits the control of the maximum possible number of equipment simultaneously. The idea is to model the entire system with all possible combinations (threads) in a novel state space representation (SSR) so that we can increase the rank of the controllability matrix. Due to its efficiency, especially with a SSR, a Kalman filter is used as an estimator for the Run-to-Run control purpose. The accuracy of the proposed method is tested using real data derived from the deposition area of STMicroelectronics foundry in Rousset.","PeriodicalId":349004,"journal":{"name":"2018 29th Annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128211157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If the polysilicon etch is too aggressive or the source and drain are not sufficiently protected, the etch can damage the active region and render the FET inoperative. Different materials are used in the active region for NFET and PFET that have different susceptibility to the polysilicon etch. To sufficiently monitor this defect, we must have good detection of damaged active regions on both PFET and NFET. However, PFET and NFET regions have very different optical noise characteristics due to varying levels of process uniformity. In addition, the distance between NFET and PFET has continued to shrink with the design rule, making evaluating each independently with optical inspection tools increasingly difficult. In this paper, we introduce new techniques to independently monitor both NFET and PFET defectivity, with improved performance over current methods.","PeriodicalId":349004,"journal":{"name":"2018 29th Annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132005703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, the surface preparation is becoming more challenging especially particulate contamination will continue to be a concern at increasingly demanding levels. The Maly equation, with its use of a Poisson distribution, continues to be used to predict the allowable defect density of front surface particles based on yield (targeting 99.9%) for a specific \"killer defect\" size, i.e. the critical particle diameter for a specific technology node, which is now less than the MPU physical gate length. This results in equipment particle specifications and provides a more tangible Roadmap1. For cleaning processes, it is not only useful to determine how well the process is removing particulate contamination but also on how many defects are being introduced during this particular cleaning step. This insight is required to get a state on the cleanliness of the process and the related tool. For this calculation, a general pre and post defect difference of the processed wafer isn't any longer sufficient, but an improved personalized defect classification is mandatory. For example, during the pre process particle inspection scan of the wafer, it is required to track the individual position of each defect and to classify each of them as ‘cleanable’ or ‘non-cleanable’. When performing the post process particle inspection scan, this tracking will allow determining how many ‘cleanable’ defects could be removed during a wet cleaning process and will result in the ‘cleaning efficiency’ (CE) of a particular process executed on a particular tool. Furthermore, by considering the added defects as process induced defects (PID) the cleanliness of the process/tool can be determined.","PeriodicalId":349004,"journal":{"name":"2018 29th Annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125743296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This evolution affords a number of opportunities in improved productivity and quality, and reduced cost, however it also brings with it a number of risks associated with maintaining security of data systems. The International Roadmap for Devices and System Factory Integration International Focus Team (IRDS FI IFT) determined that a security technology roadmap for the industry is needed to better understand the needs, challenges and potential solutions for security in the microelectronics industry and its supply chain. As a first step in providing this roadmap, the IFT conducted a security survey, soliciting input from users, suppliers and OEMs. Preliminary results indicate that data partitioning with IP protection is the number one topic of concern, with the need for industry-wide standards as the second most important topic. Further, the \"fear\" of security breach is considered to be a significant hindrance to Advanced Process Control efforts as well as use of cloud-based solutions. The IRDS FI IFT will endeavor to provide components of a security roadmap for the industry in the 2018 FI chapter, leveraging the output of the survey effort combined with follow-up discussions with users and consultations with experts.","PeriodicalId":349004,"journal":{"name":"2018 29th Annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125221475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
